Wealth seems to be hard to come by, but it doesn't seem to be too hard to come by. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yu Yan didn't know how he succeeded, just like that, he didn't do too much, and he succeeded.
When he was making games, he actually went to many game production forums and found that there were only a few games that could stand out. Most of the games, along with the dreams of their producers, are drowned in the sea of games, and they will never come out again.
Yu Yan's classification payment allowed him to get more money, and the original price of the game was low, but with the current sales, the income has doubled.
Generally, if a person likes a game, he will not be stingy with investment.
There are even people who have bought a hundred special editions, hoping that the characters they design will appear in the game of more people.
Yu Yan succeeded in an instant. When he learned that he was a producer, he immediately received job offers from many companies.
He didn't even submit a resume, and the game production company came to the door and asked him to make a game.
What the? Don't have a relevant learning experience?
It's okay, we arrange for you to study.
What the? Do you feel like you don't have enough qualifications?
It's okay, we'll arrange for you to join the company's highest-end game production team and work out.
It's almost windy, it's rainy.
The reason for this is actually not his own credit. Rather, it's a credit to the previously successful indie game producers.
Chose their game company and almost never lost money. Maybe these indie game producers have never been trained by a professional class, and maybe the games they make are, in the eyes of industry insiders, shabby.
However, if they are proven successful by the market, they are successful. No theory is summed up after the fact. The video game industry is growing so fast, who knows that previous experience will be useful in the new era.
When Yu Yan received the invitation from these companies, his heart was very calm. Not because his heart is particularly calm, but because he doesn't want to go to these companies.
When he worked in the company before, the experience of being fired was still vivid, and he felt that these companies were unreliable and useless.
The company came to me to squeeze my value, and since I have the ability to do it myself, why don't I do it alone.
What the? Short on money?
What if you are short of money, isn't there game crowdfunding now?
What the? Lack of technology?
Game colleges, so many people graduate every year, these people know technology, so hire them. Anyway, the fundamental situation in the video game industry is that the supply of talent is greater than the market demand.
You know, although the video game industry is booming, but in this development tide, how many can really enter the industry.
Most people who don't work hard in school end up being eliminated.
Of course, this is also time-splitting, and it is possible that those who entered the video game industry early are even mediocre, because of the lack of people at that time, coupled with their old qualifications, they slowly became the seniors of the industry.
But when everybody knows that video games are a good industry, the industry is actually getting saturated.
After all, most people's access to knowledge is open, and it is basically impossible to obtain information in advance.
Yu Yan quickly used the crowdfunding platform, and the now very popular Freedom Sandbox, to build a blueprint for a new game.
This game is called "Deep Space Travel", and according to Yu Yan's vision, this is a game of travel in deep space.
This game has an infinite map, and each planet is unique.
Of course, these planets are certainly not assembled by programmers little by little. Instead, it uses random rules to make a finite number of elements form an almost infinite planet.
Yu Yan only drew a few original drawings and an introduction, and put the game on the crowdfunding platform.
The first to invest money in his game were fans of his "Around the World".
The most popular fan, maybe he had too much money, and he actually invested 10,000 US dollars. You must know that $10,000 is already equivalent to one-seventh of the income of "Around the World".
The reason why it is one-seventh is because part of the sales of more than 100,000 US dollars around the world will be distributed to Chiba Games as a platform.
After all, Chiba Games' indie game Toyodai has also helped these indie game makers many times.
In fact, the relationship between Chiba Games' indie game platform and indie game producers is much closer than that of an ignorant layman.
How close it is, even some indie game producers feel like a Chiba Games employee who doesn't go to work.
They have a problem, just submit it, and Chiba Games will solve it.
Of course, because there are too many independent game makers, Chiba Games has also made an automatic response program based on previous answers.
After all, this can save more manpower and material resources, so that people in need can solve the problem in the fastest time through their own search.
However, Yu Yan doesn't have such a close relationship with the Chiba game platform.
Because, he is a very autonomous person, when making games, all the problems that can be solved are solved, and what cannot be solved is basically bypassed.
Soon, the $100,000 crowdfunding goal has been achieved.
Of course, with a hundred thousand dollars, it is almost impossible to make a game with a grander world view than the top masterpieces.
Therefore, Yu Yan said that this is only the start-up capital for the first phase of crowdfunding.
After the goal of the first phase of crowdfunding is achieved, the second phase of crowdfunding will be launched.
Even, even the crowdfunding of the game "Deep Space Travel" made Yu Yan design a cultivation game.
Watching the games you support, growing little by little, and finally gaining the likes of too many people.
Such an experience, for many people, is precious and cherished.
This is like the famous Akihabara Forty-Eight Singing Team, isn't it the reason for the success of such a model that is almost real people?
However, Yu Yan is not a beautiful girl.
It's equivalent to the role of a beautiful girl.,It's a game under his hands.。
In fact, in many cases, Japan lags behind the United States in the technology of the video game industry.
After all, the United States is the country where computers are emerging, and they have a deeper foundation and more outstanding talents.
A lot of research that didn't seem to be useful in the first place could one day turn out to be a great solution in a certain area. 、
On video games, there have been many, many, many examples of this.
Perhaps, the researchers who wrote these documents did not know that their research would have such an application in this situation.
Japan, compared to the United States, has a thinner foundation.
Although in the field of video games, it used to far surpass the United States, beating the game production peers in the United States.
However, once you return to technology, it is weak.
However, Japanese video games also have their own killer feature, and that is creativity.
After all, creativity is about culture, and the thousands of years of history of Japan are much better and more profound than the hundreds of years of history of the United States.
As a result, even when the Japanese video game industry is not technically good, it can still be creative and have a lot of specific fans.
Of course, after such changes and transformations, they make much less money than their American counterparts.
After all, the first impression of a person when a person sees a video game is usually a picture. When you see the slightly shabby picture of Japanese games, few people generally fall in love at first sight.
Perhaps, only by playing the numb American game, the kind of brainless game where the brain is full of muscles, as long as you play and fight, you can win without thinking.
Let's experience the charm of Japanese games.
The first question Yu Yan faced was his technical background.
You must know that Japan is already a technologically backward country, so Yu Yan is a game producer with no technical background.
Even, they were all born in non-academic classes. His situation, to a large extent, is the kind of folk who runs around the streets.
Minke is basically the kind of person who can question the whole world by reading a little science book.
In fact, most of the scientific theories in this world are not true. Rather, it is something close to the truth.
For example, Newton's mechanics and Einstein's theory of relativity can only be achieved if some conditions are met.
And these conditions, in real time and space, are basically non-existent.
To a large extent, the physics knowledge that people learn when they go to school is one ideal physics model after another.
Many people, because they have studied such a theoretical model and have not studied it in depth, feel that this world is a world that is orderly and has been explored by human beings.
Actually, this is far from the case.
Humans don't know anything about too many things. Many of the seemingly advanced technologies are in fact nothing more than a cover for human imperfections.
It's like a movie, television, video game, isn't it a kind of trick. Because the images received by a person per unit of time will be retained for a period of time.
Then there are movies that play pictures continuously to achieve an animated effect, and the popular TV that started to scan line by line.
Although it looks very advanced. But, in many cases, it's not the kind of technology that is amazingly advanced.
It's just that people take advantage of people's own physiological defects to use the phenomenon of visual retention, weaving a blind way.
Yu Yan did not respond to those people's questions about him, but quickly came up with the results of the first phase of crowdfunding.
A demo of the game.
This game sample, although it still looks a little immature, has already made many fans feel excited.
They'll even think it's a really great game.
But in fact, Yu Yan knew that this was just a trick.
During this time, he established a company, which was not a game company, but a company engaged in financial services.
What is this financial services company used to do, is to raise funds for "Deep Space Travel".
Use the Internet to weave a project.
Use the money that has been successfully crowdfunded, and the sample of the game, as a tool to attract people.
Use the yield of a successful indie game to endorse your game.
Hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of times the rate of return are written clearly, and it is not a lie, but a truth.
With years of experience, Yu Yan is very talented at speaking, and it didn't take long for him to raise millions of dollars.
He called his approach Internet compatible.
He used all the channels he had access to, whether it was magazines or newspapers, television, the Internet, or the advertisements that he spent a lot of money on.
He is telling others that as long as they come to invest in me, they will definitely have thousands of times the return.
In an instant, he became a household name.
Perhaps, the parents in these families, many times, don't play video games at all. Not knowing what a video game is, however, they know, it's an opportunity.
"I only earn 200,000 yuan a month, when will I be able to buy a house in Tokyo? I think I should fight hard to win. A young girl said. Entered Yu Yan's financial company and persuaded relatives and friends in his hometown in Hokkaido to buy Yu Yan's financial products.
It's actually a small country girl, and she has collected nearly 200 million yen.
At this time, the second phase of Yu Yan Games' crowdfunding goal has also been achieved, and many people have received the milestone rebates and become rich in an instant.
This inspires more people to join the bandwagon.
What is Yu Yan doing at this time? Want to make a game like Deep Space Travel?
Stop it.
He's now found himself playing big, and even if Deep Space Trek really had the vision he described, he wouldn't be able to achieve it.
When the snowball rolls up, the ability to absorb gold is too strong. Now, the Deep Space Journey project has as much money available as any super-sized game.
And the amount of this money, is growing.
Yu Yan has quietly obtained the qualification of investment immigration in the United States, he has obtained a green card in the United States, and is actively seeking to become a U.S. citizen.
He started to want to run.
He felt that he could not succeed in this project, but he could achieve success in his life on the basis of the failure of the project.
What is life, this is life.
Life is inherently full of tragedy and misfortune, and when a person gains and joy, it may produce greater tragedy and misfortune for more people.
Yu Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with him doing this, he felt that the world was malicious enough to me, why can't I be malicious to others.
――――――――
Yuebai is in a very bad mood today, and advises all book friends, including herself, not to buy any form of Internet financial products.
has been anti-Internet finance all day long, but I didn't expect that my family was still shot. It's dramatic.
The next moon may seek change.
Changing the mentality of writing from having fun to making money, after all, there is a lack of money, no capital, and no other skills. (To be continued.) )
